Probe into CD scandal case not yet complete, SIT informs High Court

Advocate for victim told to submit an application for clubbing petitions

The Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing the CD scandal case allegedly involving the former Minister Ramesh Jarkiholi on Friday informed the High Court that its investigation into the complaints by the woman victim had not yet been completed. A statement in this regard was made by the SIT in its status report submitted in a sealed cover before a Division Bench, comprising Chief Justice Abhay Shreeniwas Oka and Justice Suraj Govindaraj, during the hearing of PIL petitions questioning the legality of constitution of the SIT and seeking transfer of the probe to an independent agency. Earlier, senior advocate Indira Jaising, appearing on behalf of the victim, said an application had been filed on behalf of the woman to be part of the PIL proceedings.
